London, July 11. Officials of King George's Ju bilece Trust Fund have launched negotiations for a match between Fred Perry and Ellsworth Vines for the "world's tennis champion- ship," it was learned to-day.
Vines generally regarded as the greatest of the profession- als, already has been approach- ed to play the British ace, who is conceded to be king of the amateurs. If the lanky Cali- fornian's decision is favourable. an effort will be made to secure the British approval from Lawn Tennis Association. The match if negotiations are suc- cessful, would be played at Wim- bledon shortly after the Davis Cup challenge round.
Vines Agreeable?
Vines, who is playing in the professional tournament at South- port, has advised the promoters he will discuss the proposal when he comes to London on Tuesday. The American is almost certain to agree to the match.
